A moisture-packed storm moved into Northern California Sunday night, dumping rain on the Bay Area through early Tuesday morning.

The National Weather Service released a list of the highest 48-hour rainfall totals at spots around the San Francisco Bay Area and Santa Cruz and Monterey Counties (above we highlight some of those).

The tiny town of Venado, 10 miles west of Healdsburg, recorded the most rain with 8.5 inches across 48 hours. Peaks in the Santa Lucia and Santa Cruz mountains were also drenched. These areas commonly receive the most rain in big storms.
